Yesterday, IHG released their PointBreaks hotels for bookings from now through 7/31. These are simply the best deals in the hotel awards system – 5,000 points per night at the selected hotels! I will have a breakdown later of which hotels are great options for upcoming races, but for now, here it is.
Look at the savings – 5,000 points versus spending $100!
Getting IHG Points
There are a variety of ways to get the points necessary for PointBreak hotels. The one thing that I would only do as a last resort is to use Ultimate Rewards. Yes, these hotels are a fantastic value, but 5,000 Ultimate Reward points can be worth, at the minimum, $62. For many of us, we can find common value closer to $75 – $85 for Ultimate Reward points when transferred to partners like Southwest, Hyatt, United, and Singapore. So, only transfer if you cannot obtain points through one of these other methods.
A great way to get a bundle of IHG points is through the 80K IHG credit card which you can read about here. Another way is through purchasing IHG points which you can read about here.

Overview
Admittedly, this list is not exciting from an aspirational stay point of view. However, excitement is definitely in the eye of those redeeming! If you have to visit one of the cities on that list, your stay just got a lot cheaper. In my case, there is finally a Rochester hotel on the list – and just in time for my brother’s upcoming wedding. So, while we do not see any Intercontinental hotels on this round, there are still some great values to be had if you have upcoming trips. Watch later this week for the PointBreaks race edition!
